Aren Brathwaite and Sarah Patrick won the top two prizes in the Inspire>Aspire Commonwealth Games Poster Competition as part of the activities for the 20th edition recently held in Glasgow, Scotland.
Brathwaite and Patrick, both former students of the Hilda Skeene Primary School, took first and second place, respectively.
The students were part of a final group of submissions which also included D’Jana Maynard, Kayla McConney, Jacobi Hall and Blair Knight. 
The competition was part of a Character & Values Education Program where the students completed a poster template which required them to engage in critical analysis and reflection of themselves and their future goals.
The finalists from each Commonwealth country were then submitted to an international panel of judges to select the winner. They will receive £50 pounds and £25 pounds, respectively and the school will get £75 pounds.
Brathwaite will be attending the Christ Church Foundation School and Patrick will be attending The St Michael School when the new school term commences. (PR/SAT)
